Drug Addict Shoots Child!

A young boy, aged 12, was shot in the stomach by a junkie “drug addict” using an air gun.

The incident, which took place on January the 28th in Stanley, Perthshire, was due to the valium/ diazepam loaded addict disliking the “noise” the youngster was making on his toy motorbike.

Steven Urquhart, who is 22, was jailed for an extremely lenient short sentence of just 9months!

Sheriff Robert McCreadie said the junkies’ behaviour was “extraordinary” and that Urquhart had committed a “wicked” offence which could have had disastrous consequences.

No kidding Sherlock!

At Perth Sheriff Court, Sheriff McCreadie said: “It is a serious matter to discharge a weapon at a 12-year-old boy not knowing where that pellet would end up.

“He should not be using drugs and then carrying an airgun which he recklessly discharged at a 12-year-old boy. It was extraordinary behaviour.

“This was apparently committed after you had taken a substantial amount of valium. Whether you were aware of what you were doing is debatable.

“Who knows what part of the body pellets might have hit. You could easily have hit his face with potentially very serious consequences. Your actions were clearly wicked.”

Another Imported Sex Fiend!

A foreign male “carer” that was working at a nursing home in Edinburgh carried out a sick, twisted sexual assault 76 year old elderly female patient as the pensioner clung onto her Zimmer frame.

The elderly victim later informed another employee that Joseph Sinja had “done things her husband wouldn’t do”.

Sinja a 32 year old Kenyan national admitted carrying out the attack on April 26th 2009 when he appeared at the High Court in Edinburgh.

This monstrous attacker will be sentenced at a later date, but the Kenyan national was warned that he could be deported – but I very much doubt it!

We have great admiration for this brave lady that was able to speak up about this vile, sexual assault and hope she is doing well.
